L.A. Nilly partyers, a request, please?
My friend Pieter - Lee and Sean have met him, ita and Betsy and Dana and Beverly know him and can vouch for him - lives in LA. He wants to meet erika while she's there, and F2F with some of the locals.
Pieter's a doll, one of the best people I know. Can you ping me in email, if you'd like to set something up? Lee and Sean, we had dinner with Pieter at Taxco.
On August 11 2004, at 2:45 pm -- in Royal Canberra Hospital -- Andrew James Hird made his successful bid for freedom from the confines of my sister after a short labour. Yes, she has dropped sprog, and this thread gets to live up to its title. Higgins and Hird are reportedly doing well, my sister reports that labour is 'kind of dull, what with all the waiting'; and photos may be heading my way once the ancestors work out how to use that newfangled internet thingie all the kids are into these days.
Bt is funny, but he knows that.(You can write my birth annoucements, too, babe, should I ever sprog) Anyway, I'm doing the check-got-here dance right now AIFG, out of practice though I am. Thanks! {{Buffistas}} {Anarachs}}} {[Lovely and talented sister-wife and The Husband}}(My internet postings will be quite the challenge to my biographers, I think.)
Interview went well with Robert Half, Inc. We'll see where this leads. Thanks for all the Interview~ma, folks.
Charley has decided to not follow the predicted path, or strength, and is coming ashore right where my parents, brother, and sister have homes. They are all safe, but send some strong~roof~ma in the direction of their homes please.
Hi all. I am in Orlando and staring Charley in the face. As it stands right now, the eye is scheduled to go directly over my house around 11:00 tonight (eastern time). Any spare safe-hurricane- and non-freaked- kitty-ma would be greatly appreciated. Fortunately, we rent our house, have renter's insurance, and are not in a flood zone, so I'm optimistic. I'm just terrified of tornadoes (I blame too many viewings of The Wizard of Oz as a child.)
With luck, I can post the results in the morning.
I will be continuing in the black for the foreseeable future. I miss hanging here muchly. The upside is that work is busy in a good way. For the time being, the work pc is my portal to b.org, so I'm a bit stuck.
Best vibes to the wind-tossed, and to all and sundry.
We're heading out as soon as the dog-sitter gets here, about 10:30 MT. When I come back on, I'll have Nilly stories!
